I can't believe you live in Woodbury.  I live in Lake Grove by the Smithhaven mall.  I grew up in Oyster Bay!  E-mail me and I'll give you my phone number.  My hubby is retired from the LIRR so we can go into NYC on my pass if you want to take the railroad.  I think BethNY lives in Plainview or Bethpage.   This is going to be great!

Saturdays are bad for me (karate!) and I have a tournament on 3/2 - but please don't plan around my schedule, ladies!

Just let me know when and I'll try my best to get there.

Don't forget about PegK! She's from my neck of the woods - Orange County...

So Sunday March 9th is looking good.  Julia/jdash -- do you have a place in mind?

This is exciting! Jdash, Jane/OneBadBoob, BethNY, DebzNY, Desny, Felicia (maybe PegK), bgraham2ny, me -- that's 8 or 9. 

 I think I'll PM Nagem and Carolina since I've Pm'd each about some other stuff.

March 9 is good for me--

Anyone ever gone to the Turkish Kitchen?

They have an incredible selection of fresh, delicious foods on the Sunday Buffett--something for everyone--not joust Turkish--just a thought.  And price is reasonable at $21.95. 

Anyone else choosing a place?

Jane, Turkish Kitchen sounds great to me.

Julia (jdash) mentioned picking a place -- did you have a place in mind, Julia?

I'm guessing midtown, near to Grand Central and/or Penn Station will be good.  Turkish Kitchen works on that score.

Femme, of course you're invited!

I'd say anyone who can get there is invited, right jdash?

We have date: Sunday March 9.

I think we still need to confirm time and place?

By the way, Femme, do you live in the East or West 60s? (I work in the W.60s)
Good luck with your procedure tomorrow.

I live in the east 60's. Thanks for the good wishes, Pegk. I'm the first case tomorrow at Weill Cornell NY Presbyterian Hospital. I have to be there at 6 AM. But I really I feel I made every decision about my surgery along the way, and now it is... fate, kismet, the gods and goddesses, positive energy and luck that will be in charge. Oh the doctors will have a hand in all this also!!!
